Yeah, the story and characters are even worse than the first game but the gameplay maps have started getting much better in chapter 4, which is the last chapter I've done. Definitely feels like there's more talking and it's bad.

Seems like you get soldiers in a somewhat random order like VC1. I like using characters that have a bunch of negative traits since the game's not too hard but it's worth using a bunch of characters because I think doing so is what unlocks the sub-squad events, which are mini-chapters that have some story and a battle and end up unlocking/changing characters' potentials.

I like the girl in the helmet and the mom lancer.

Got back to playing this weekend and the the pre-order dlc missions were really good even though they recycled the maps. Having a predetermined team and no orders makes the tactical poo poo more interesting. On chapter 10 and so far the maps are lot better than the first game since the number of gimmick maps are way toned down and I hope it stays that way.

The new class is cool for both the player and enemy though they kind of make lancers even more useless than they already were.
